Gracia, another view of Barcelona
What used to be a small village 100 years ago, is now a lively neighbourhood of Barcelona. The locals live together with students, expats, occupants and artists. In Gracia you will find original small shops, modernist buildings (including one of the early works of Gaudi), lively squares and authentic markets.
Tour details
Our itinerary leads you along the remaining squares and alleys of this former village. They all have their own history and the modernist buildings and other charming spots of this neighbourhoud will make you feel a privileged visitor of this part of the city. We want to transmit how real people live in Barcelona, instead of confront you every 100 yards with yet another souvenir shop.
